The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission is encouraging people of all skill levels to go fishing in Nebraska. This web page is intended to be a resource for novices to the sport of fishing. This "GO FISHING" web page features how-to videos and step-by-step instructions on the basics of fishing and provides information about places to fish in Nebraska, how to get a Nebraska fishing license and locations for Family Fishing Nights and related events that are scheduled throughout the summer in communities across Nebraska.

There is a good collection of information here - so browse through the links, download the items of interest to you and explore all the opportunities to learn more about the sport of fishing!
